rim identification

Hi guys,

I was wondering if anyone could help me to identifiy the rims that are on this 83 fb?

Picture only shows the rim but they are on an 83 gs. They are 14" and that all i know about them.

I'm about to buy the car with them on and would just would like to get some additional information.

Thanks in advance.

well, considering they're only held on by 2 studs, i'd be VERY WARY of the car. DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR LIKE THAT.

You should pm dj55b, they look a lot like the rims he has on his fb. He might be able to give you some information on them.

Ya they look different with the center caps ... i have a picture somewhere i'll try to find it and post it ... the width on those rims is 6" if i recall correctly. The offset is not the greatest, last year when putting on some 195's i had to put a 1/4" spacer to clear ... pretty sad ...
